What Chen Yan didn't expect was that just after Chu Yinyin hung up the phone, a new call came in immediately.
The person who called this time was a woman.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Chen Yan always felt that the woman’s voice on the phone sounded familiar, but he couldn’t remember who it was for a moment.
Chu Yinyin and this woman obviously had a very good relationship. They addressed each other very intimately on the phone, not even using their surnames. They called each other by nicknames and spoke a few private words.
The woman who called complained that Chu Yinyin did not contact her as soon as she returned to Beijing. Chu Yinyin simply explained that she had come to Beijing mainly for important business and had planned to call the other party after she had done that.
Upon learning that Chu Yinyin had already booked a full appointment for tonight, the woman who called didn't say anything more, but just asked Chu Yinyin to leave the next day for her.
The two made an appointment to go shopping together the next day, and then hung up the phone.
"She's my best friend since we were little, but since we were teenagers, our careers have taken completely different paths, so we only have a few opportunities to see each other each year. In the past two years, her career hasn't been going well, and she's not as busy as before, so we've had time to see each other more often."
Chu Yinyin gave a brief explanation.
The two of them had already taken the elevator to the relevant floor of the ministry building.
Chen Yan held the elevator door open, letting Chu Yinyin exit first. He then quickly followed, grinning and saying, "You're only twenty-four. Since she's your best friend, she should be around the same age as you, right? Did you start your careers in your teens? At twenty-four, you've already had a rough few years? Tsk, having a wealthy and powerful family background is great..."
Chu Yinyin didn't mind Chen Yan's slightly sour tone at all, and sneered, "What? You think it's unfair? But you have to know that since humans have had thoughts, this world has never been truly fair. Everything I had as a child was hard-earned by my father's generation.
My father's generation achieved their success either on their own or through the hard work of the generations before them. It took several generations of hard work to achieve the social status and life we have today. If we were to live the same life as you from a young age, would that be fair to our elders?
Chen Yan thought about it and nodded, "That's indeed the truth. Rather than saying that most people are angry about social injustice, it's better to say that they are angry that they are not from the privileged class. So, because of this dark thought hidden in their hearts, they will find all kinds of excuses to justify their failed lives.
It's as if they've lived a mediocre life, never truly accomplished anything, because they didn't have a good father or grandfather, yet they never seriously examine themselves. The reason they keep failing is actually a failure of their own character and their own abilities."
As the two were talking, they were led by Bian Zihua in front and walked into a large conference room on this floor.
Bian Zihua personally poured a glass of water for each of them, then respectfully asked them to wait in the conference room for a while, then turned and left the conference room to report the matter to his superior.
Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin didn't have to wait long, no more than five minutes at most, before a leader who looked to be in his fifties walked into the conference room accompanied by six people.
Bian Zihua is just one of these six people, and he seems to be the lowest level among the six...
After a brief introduction to each other, the leader in his fifties signaled someone next to him to take out a thick stack of contracts and placed them in front of Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin.
The content of the contract had been discussed in advance, and the electronic version had been sent to Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin for review, so this time they came here just to go through the signing process.
As for whether a few words will be temporarily changed after the electronic version is reviewed, or whether some trap clauses will be set in the contract, these things... at least from the government's perspective, there is no need to do so.
Of course, you still need to look carefully at the places that need to be looked at.
Chen Yan's powerful five senses allowed him to scan through the contents at a glance in a very short time, and he could also remember all the contents clearly in his mind and compare them with the contents of the contract he had reviewed before.
It took no more than ten minutes in total for Chen Yan to confirm that the content of the contract was exactly the same as the previous electronic version, so he picked up a pen and signed his name on the contract.
Chu Yinyin also signed her name on her contract, and the equity swap and sale procedures were officially completed.
The elderly leader smiled and shook hands with Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin respectively. After praising them with a few meaningless words, he did not chat with Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin for too long. He just told Bian Zihua to treat Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin well in the evening, and then left with his people and the contract.
When only Chen Yan and Chu Yinyin were left in the conference room, Bian Zihua quickly spoke, "Don't overthink it, the two of you. It's not that the boss doesn't want to talk to you more, it's mainly because the schedule arranged for you is very tight, and the boss can't delay you for too long. After signing the contract, I have to take you to the sea, where the schedule is even tighter. I've arranged a full half-hour meeting for you two, so there's no time to lose. Please, the car is waiting downstairs."
kindness?
Chen Yan subconsciously looked at Chu Yinyin. He was completely unprepared for Bian Zihua's suggestion of taking them to the sea.
The look of astonishment on Chu Yinyin's face was no less than Chen Yan's.
As he followed Bian Zihua out of the conference room, he frowned and asked, "Which senior leader wants to see us? Can you tell us in advance so we can prepare ourselves mentally?"
Bian Zihua replied, "Three of the seven leaders are currently on overseas visits, and four remain in China. Therefore, the four leaders who remain in China will meet with you together this time."
Chu Yinyin was even more surprised and asked in confusion, "Why? We just opened a technology company. Even if our technology is world-leading, it shouldn't alarm the top management, right?"
Bian Zihua smiled and said, "I don't know about that. They can't tell me what the higher-ups are thinking, right? You'll find out when you get there. It's definitely a good thing. If they didn't value you two so much, there's no way four of these bigwigs would take the time to meet with you."
Chu Yinyin's head was full of question marks.
After exchanging a glance with Chen Yan, he followed Bian Zihua into the car, then took out his cell phone and dialed his father's number.
